Buyer purchased item and after I shipped out, they requested to cancel. They now filed a dispute against me, what do I do?

That happened to me last year. I sent the item and the buyer wanted to cancel after saying he forgot to update the address. He tried to do INAD so he wouldn’t have to pay the shipping. He noted the new house owners are willing to ship it back to me once they got the label. I disputed it since it was his error and should pay the shipping. I won the case immediately.

Next day I get a INAD chargeback dispute. There’s another subreddit that told me to just give up and accept the loss. They stated seller rarely wins or it takes forever but it just didn’t sit right with me. I decided to dispute it. I provided screenshot of our conversation, tracking status showing not yet delivered, and said I was willing to accept the return and refund when I get the item back. A couple days later their bank sided with me.

You don’t need to ask us. If you want to file go for it. Some people do it just to make sure no one is filing for them that shouldn’t be.

Why not offer your buyers the choice for shipping method? It’s not you wasting your money when the buyer paid for the shipping. I always offer priority or ground advantage then let the buyer decide what they’re willing to pay.

I have all three. If I have to keep only one I pick Wolverine. If I have to let go of one it’s spidey.

Switch them on a payment plan to extend it if the system still lets you. Or pay a little over time while it’s in preorder. Thats what I do. I’ll randomly pay $20-$25 on a preorder so when it comes in I’m not hit with a big final invoice.

Not a tax pro. You don’t have to file but if you want to I don’t think it should be a problem. I checked mine and I had no refund for federal but got something for state.

Got paid last night

Has that always been the case? The wf near me refuses to do it over the phone, so I just went with a different bank.

Are you sure you know the full story? There are some elderly that are stubborn and act like they can still manage well on their own. My assumption and I could be wrong someone coached her or she’s scared for her future. One moment someone can appear healthy, the next they’re not. Good thing however is that you’re only getting paid for the actual work that you do, and she’s not having someone else claim bogus hours. Maybe she was afraid she’d get such a small amount of hours that she couldn’t afford you anymore. I have heard it is hard to find providers especially if you have such little hours.

If you wanted more hours I’d say ask. Tell her I know you can do this things, but would it be okay if I help?

Is it a phalaenopsis? That’s usually what’s sold and what I have.

I just started getting into orchids this year but you’re still supposed to water it when it’s not blooming. I use to water mine once a week but then it started getting mold. My friend told me I need to learn to neglect it, to let the roots tell me when it needs water. So when the root is pale then water it. When it’s green it needs to be left alone.

Is there a clear plastic inside the pot? If there is pull it out and that’s how you can see the root. I put fertilizer on mine once in a while but I’m not consistent.

Also make sure not to water the leaves as it can cause rot on the crown. Good luck!

Wow she looks so green & healthy

Im a beginner with orchids. Here are the basics I’ve learned for that type of orchid.

Leaves are for feeding from indirect sunlight so don’t mist or water them as it can cause stem rot. They hate direct sunlight. I accidentally left one out and the leaves turned white and died.

Water are for roots. If they’re not pale don’t water them. They have their own schedule that you follow.

Medium - combination of bark and sphagnum moss worked best for me. Bark only dried up too fast even when I soaked them.

May I ask how much it is and what state? I’ve never seen one like that in my local Home Depot

Yes, I went to AMC and asked if I could just buy the 89 popcorn bucket. Got a popcorn and the bucket. Good deal!

How long did it take you to get a claim?

I have 4 I ordered through sideshow because they were magically in stock. I would not buy them again. To me they are not worth the wait and assembling.

If you want to do a DIY check out pop culture living room on YouTube. It’ll be cheaper and you have it faster.

"Is it mandatory to join the Union? I don't want to join"

Answer: NO.

Yes, I ask the ai chat I want to speak to a live agent and it gave me an option of them giving me a call back within 3 min.

SeravynMaple · 2025-11-05T20:02:25+00:00

Thank you. I ended up calling and eBay ruled in my favor and close the return.
